Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy spherical bell, the exterior appears to have been white metal coated. The integrally cast suspension loop is a half-rectangle with angled shoulders and has a circular perforation. The 'top' half (which includes the suspension loop) is decorated with a motif of a flower with eight petals, each of the drop shaped petals is 'double', there are two circular perforations sited opposite each other. Below the equatorial moulding, of which there is no evidence on the inside of the bell, there appears to be further decoration of a flower motif, this time probably of twelve petals, although only one half of this part of the bell remains extant as the bell has broken across the slit, one side of which is further decorated by a moulded square shield inside which is a T or arrow. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
